The most American game so far didn't get released in America. Huh.

The Famicom cover for Ultima Exodus has some cartoony depictions of our heroes. Not surprising though since a lot of the game was adjusted to accommodate an audience familiar with JRPGS

I think Yume is a Famicom Disk System. It explains all the colours, even the yellow buttons, and her red stripe patternat the bottom of her design. Videogames used to be considered toys afterall.

It has elevators. It has action. It has the color palette of a Play-doh multi pack. It looks like it can play on an Atari 2600. What more could you want?

You can't go wrong with a good ol' space shooter. My cousin seems to exclusively play fps games and space shooters.

Or it's original name,

Considering the arcade release date and main character design, they could've just made this a tie-in for The Karate Kid. I think AVGN would've preferred this over the LJN game.

I guess the Olympic Games weren't going to wait for Mario and Sonic's rivalry to start before becoming a video game.

And now they aren't even waiting for Sonic at all.

, maybe add in a Wrecking Crew DLC to Mario Maker 2? Destructible levels sounds cool.

I'm noticing a trend with Japanese exclusives. Lots of black backgrounds with little cute characters.

I'm under the impression that this was only released in Japan. I checked online, only Dig Dug 2 comes up in my searches for the NES.

If I had to guess why, it's the same reason as Space Invaders. Everyone already had it.

"Assault Suits Valken" (Super Famicom, 1992) is currently being at https://t.co/A4FIEB0Jcw as part of its Retr-O-Thon marathon event.

(Below is fan art I commissioned based on the game awhile back.)

I thought it was gonna be a Pac-Man rip off, but It seems to be something entirely different.

Still has a yellow guy in mazes though.

I really liked designing this one. I'll include some variations in this post.

They're a bit dramatic for the game in question but I hope the original developers like it if they see this.

And while you're all here, hi, hello! I write about weird video games for my little website.

Here's the iM game on PSP, for instance.

And here's a bunch of iM CDs with a Famicom theme to them.

Decided to also upload the background because I like it quite a bit.

Sometimes I wish Nintendo allowed a few more than 5 games sent to America a year by each 3rd party. Some of these look pretty fun.

This game is basically Slalom but cute and you don't have a 8-bit butt in your face.
